JOB
[XIV
- That thou wouldest keep me secret, until thy wrath be past,
- That thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me!
- If a man die, shall he live again?
- All the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come.
- Thou shalt call, and I will answer thee:
- Thou wilt have a desire to the work of thine hands.
- For now thou numberest my steps:
- Dost thou not watch over my sin?
- My transgression is sealed up in a bag,
- And thou sewest up mine iniquity.
- And surely the mountain falling cometh to nought,
- And the rock is removed out of his place.
- The waters wear the stones:
- Thou washest away the things which grow out of the dust of the earth;
- And thou destroyest the hope of man.
- Thou prevailest for ever against him, and he passeth:
- Thou changest his countenance, and sendest him away.
- His sons come to honour, and he knoweth it not;
- And they are brought low, but he perceiveth it not of them.
- But his flesh upon him shall have pain,
- And his soul within him shall mourn.
